Prophecy

I can see clearly now, a painful vision indeed

An attack on hallowed ground, from high above

Alien to us, the species known as man

A serious threat, in the eyes of the Elder



So heed my warning, before our own existence falls near extinct

Our culture is lost in ancient mystery, covered in the sands of time



A sacred few survive the massacre this night

In secret they will meet a new society



Ten thousand years from now, a child will be born

I've seen the vision, the writing on the wall

He'll walk the Earth, two thousand years or more

Paving the way, for mankind's fall



So there is hope you see, but we must act with great speed

Assemble the chosen, the ones to lead, and morph them in the likeness of man



Oppressed for centuries, await the prophecy

The child will set us free, reclaim it rightfully



We'll take their identity and live among them free

All the while, plotting events that mold their history

We'll build the perfect beast with the knowledge that they seek

If it takes ten thousand years, we never will retreat



Assassins we will be, through human history

Jesus Christ to Kennedy, the Domino Decree

Disciples of the Watch, prepare the coming curse

If it takes ten thousand years, we never will retreat



And so, our world is doomed, we'll lay claim again some day

There is hope, in the birth of one, so many centuries away
